Registration process

Registering a car in the traffic police is an integral procedure for obtaining a registration number. Before registration it is necessary to issue an insurance certificate for the vehicle. To carry out the procedure in two ways:

Required documents

When choosing the first registration option, you need to know exactly which set of documents is required to complete the procedure:

• identity document (passport);
• vehicle passport (PTS) received upon purchase;
• certificate of registration of the vehicleif the car was already registered;
• state license plates (you can leave old if they are in good condition);
• proof of purchase of the vehicle (contract of sale);
• document confirming payment of state duty (receipt);
• mandatory insurance certificate for transport (insurance);
• statement in traffic police on registration.

In some cases, traffic police officers may ask the owner to provide an operation manual, as well as check whether the basic equipment of the car includes: a jack, a first aid kit and a standard fire extinguisher. In order not to waste precious time, it is better to take care of the availability of the above means and documents in advance.

In this case, the numbers may even belong to another region, now it does not matter anymore. The compliance of the numbers with the allowable state will be determined by the inspector during the inspection. They should not be jammed, worn, or otherwise damaged.

Terms of car registration
